How do you update a 1950’s bedroom set?

It is from a store Daniel Jones that was in NYC. Made when quality mattered. But, it is walnut ( fruitwood ) with small beautiful
blue wedge wood knobs and wedgewood inlays. How can I update the bedroom with paint, lamps, accessories. Includes a triple dresser, men’s high chest , 2 end tables and head board. Looks very matchy. The room is painted off white and off white window treatments it looks very bland. I’m afraid if I paint the wrong color blue it will go from one boring look to another.
